On Carlton's semi-detached streets, squirrels often find a worn soffit or vent. We trace the entry point, treat and advise on keeping them out.
Carlton, east of Nottingham in Gedling borough, is largely inter-war and post-war semi-detached housing. Rows of similar houses tend to develop similar faults, and squirrels exploit them. Typical entry points include perished soffit boards, loose fascia and ill-fitting vent covers at the eaves. Because semis share a ridge, a squirrel can move across the roofline, and noise reported by one household may be linked to a next-door gap.
We inspect the loft and roof edges, identify which routes are used and carry out treatment lawfully. Afterwards we offer practical advice on proofing, and on whether a neighbour should also be told. Same day appointments can be arranged where available. Fixed pricing, no call-out charge and a free prevention survey apply to all visits.
It is worth doing, since the entry point may be on their side and a single gap can serve both roofs. We can explain what we found, which makes the conversation easier.
Appointments can be arranged to suit you, including same day visits where possible. Call and tell us what you are hearing and when, and we will arrange the earliest suitable time.
Yes. They can chew timber, insulation and cables, and cable damage can be a fire risk.
